I emailed with someone from admissions today and this is what they said: Thank you for checking in with us! Most departmental funding has been distributed, but there is potential that we will award a few more and we will re-award any scholarships if awardees decide not to attend. Once we are completely done awarding funding we will send an email out letting everyone know that all departmental funding has been awarded.

I received an email first!

Just got my UW acceptance! I applied Advanced Standing!

Just heard back from UW! I got in!! I applied Advanced Standing on 1/2!

Just quickly jumping into this thread! I am finishing up my BSW degree and will graduate in May. I have applied to GMU, UW Seattle, and Columbia. A little nervous because I am young and therefore have limited experience in comparison to other applicants, but if I don't get in this year - there is always next year!

I applied too on Jan. 3rd! It is my first choice, so really hoping for a good outcome!

I am also applying to start an MSW program in Fall 2019! Currently, I am a senior BSW student at James Madison University with a cumulative GPA of 3.7 and my major GPA is 3.92. My experience includes: - Executive board member of the JMU chapter of the Phi Alpha Honor Society - Semester placement at a retirement home, specifically working with residents with limited ambulatory skills - 50 hour placement at our local refugee resettlement center - Spanish interpreter for the local Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program - Wrote a grant for a local agency that was awarded $3,000 - Writing tutor for the duration of my entire time at JMU at the University Writing Center - Summer internship as a technical writer for VA/veteran resources - Summer internship working with a literacy nonprofit to provide books to low-income school districts - Research assistant for the George Mason University Social Work dept. And in a couple days, I will be assigned my 475 hour field placement for next semester! I am applying to George Mason University, UW Seattle, and Columbia. My biggest worry is that I am going straight into the MSW from my BSW, so I do have limited experience in comparison to other applicants. My interest area is palliative care and bereavement, and I am working on research this semester in perinatal loss that I hope to continue during my graduate studies.
